I mean, will they do the Friday, Saturday, and Monday thing, and then still do the state tournament Tuesday-Saturday?

I think they will if they can. Spring baseball and slow pitch are already crammed into spring, plus spring livestock shows. Hopefully the weather man is wrong and it’s just a cold rain

I just looked at last years class A state tournament and the boys played Thursday/Friday/Saturday. Girls played Wednesday/Friday/Saturday

I could be wrong? I think that is correct however

That is probably right. For the quarterfinals the Class B girls played 4 games on Tuesday, Class B boys played 2 on Tuesday and 2 on Wed., Class A girls played 4 on Wed. and Class A boys played 4 on Thu. For Semis, B girls played on Thu with everyone else playing on Friday and all Finals on Saturday.

If there are more weather delays this week, A and B state will probably be Thursday thru Saturday.

I completely agree that OSSAA could change things due to weather delays. If they do move back to Thursday to Saturday then they would need to move some games to 1 or more additional venues.
